I traveled through time and space and found a mute boy: That’s enough, I feel sorry for him

Wu Yong had also heard the rumor and was planning to join in the fun to see whether it was true or not. However, before he even left the house, he saw Mu Jinghua.

"Brother Mu, you are not injured!" Wu Yong said in surprise, "Brother Le, Brother Wan, Doctor Qi, Qu Xiu, Brother Mu is back!"

Mu Jinghua smiled at him and said, "Brother Wu, I'm fine. It was Xu Shu who asked me to come back and tell everyone that you don't need to pay attention to the rumors about exchanging your life for your possessions."

"He knows about this..." Qi Huairen came over and heard Mu Jinghua's words. He subconsciously said, "It won't be that he directed and acted in this again."

"No." Mu Jinghua waved his hands, wanting to say that Xu Shu was just taking the blame for the trouble he had caused. But then he remembered that Xu Shu had told us not to reveal too much to everyone, so he could only say, "Xu Shu told us to wait for his news."

He was a little depressed when talking about this: "He asked me to catch up on some sleep... If he comes back, can he send someone to call me, Brother Wu?"

"Ah? Oh, oh, okay." Wu Yong responded subconsciously, but felt strange. However, seeing that Mu Jinghua looked tired, he did not ask.

……

Things afterwards were much easier to handle. Xu Shu didn't even say anything, as someone else made his meaning clear to him.

Xu Shu only needed to give a pill at the right time and feel grateful that Xiao Mujin had the foresight to prepare enough antidotes.

Then he went to the family's warehouse and emptied out the family property of several generations in front of them.

Let me sigh again. Fortunately, Qiao Wan sent me a space ring with a large enough capacity.

But this is still less efficient.

Xu Shu had to stay up late to finish the work, and was once again thankful that Feng Dan had no plans to attack the city at night.

I worked like this until late at night and finally completed the KPI.

To be honest, he was not sleepy, after all, he didn't do any physical work. He was just worried about Mu Jinghua who probably couldn't sleep well at home, so he hurried home as soon as he finished.

Having done such a big business, it’s not easy to leave.

Sure enough, he had just rushed to the Mu Mansion and confirmed the KPI completion rate with Mu Tonghai to ensure that the system certification had passed, when he heard a sharp shout coming from outside.

"Your Majesty has arrived. Kneel!"

Xu Shu glanced at Mu Tonghai who was still sick, and kindly gave him a pill: "Take it, but just avoid Xiao Mujin."

Mu Tonghai was stunned at first, then he sighed: "My friend, I knew we were on the same boat."

Xu Shu stopped looking at him and added, "After we eat, I won't be in charge of the emperor anymore."

"Ah?" Mu Tonghai was stunned again. Looking at the pills in his hand, he thought to himself, "It's over." Then he quickly grabbed Xu Shu and said, "My friend, you can't leave."

Xu Shu frowned: "Aren't you and him colleagues? You two can discuss it and this matter will be over."

“No, no, no,” Mu Tonghai waved his hands repeatedly, “This is a serious matter, we can’t just settle it easily.”

"What else can it be?" Xu Shu said impatiently, "I've saved the people for you. I'm just a martial arts champion who hasn't taken office yet. How can I compare to you, the Prime Minister?"

"No, no, no, my friend, you forgot an important matter. It concerns Mu Jinghua."

Xu Shu's face turned cold, and he stared at Mu Tonghai for a while. Finding that he was not guilty, he took away the antidote he had not taken.

Mu Tonghai's hands were empty and he wanted to cry but had no tears. He coughed up two mouthfuls of blood and heard the voice of Eunuch Wang coming from outside.

"Your Majesty, please slow down and pay attention to the dragon's body."

Xu Shu looked over and saw the emperor walking towards him quickly. Knowing that he could not leave, Xu Shu could only speak: "Your Majesty."

But he just opened his mouth and had no intention of greeting.

Eunuch Wang was watching from the side, and when he was about to question in a cold voice, the emperor raised his hand to stop him: "You can leave now. I have something to discuss with you, my dear ministers."

Seeing that the emperor didn't mind, Eunuch Wang didn't say anything more. He bowed and left, closing the door behind him.

Only Xu Shu, Mu Tonghai and the emperor were left in the lower room, but the atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

The emperor skillfully sat on the couch next to Mu Tonghai and poured three cups of tea. After handing one to Mu Tonghai, he looked at Xu Shu and said, "Would you like one cup?"

He is about the same age as Xu Shu and looks somewhat similar, but when he is not pretending to be the emperor, his behavior reveals a bit of ruffian spirit.

Xu Shuding stared at him for a while, feeling a little unhappy for some reason, and deliberately began to talk in circles: "Your Majesty personally handed me the tea, I am terrified."

The emperor's smile froze, and he was about to take back his hand offering the tea, but Xu Shu suddenly reached out and took the tea.

The emperor's expression froze completely, and he subconsciously glanced at Mu Tonghai.

Mu Tonghai shook his head at him, with an expression that said there was nothing he could do, and ignored him, lowering his head to drink his tea.

Xu Shu took the tea and took a sip. He didn't like the cold tea very much, so he got straight to the point and said, "Your Majesty, just say whatever you want to say."

The emperor was drinking tea. Upon hearing this, he glanced at Mu Tonghai first, and then said, "Xu Shu, you are skilled and courageous. You can deal with those guys outside, right?"

"That's really a compliment." Xu Shu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.

"That's right." The emperor waved his hand. "You are so famous in the end times. I have heard a little about you in Qiao Wan."

Xu Shu remained silent.

The emperor continued, "Let's not talk about Feng Dan first. You will cooperate with the following plot, right?"

Xu Shu looked at him: "What's the next plot?"

"It's about Mu Jinghua...taking over all the responsibilities and me retiring..."

"How old are you? You're retiring already?"

The emperor coughed lightly and said, "Now that I have enough money, of course I will retire and live a carefree life. If you were me, you would definitely do the same."

"Yes." Xu Shu nodded. "If I were you, I would definitely do the same, and I would retire with my wife. So taking charge of all the power and governing the country is such an exhausting and thankless job..."

"You don't want to take it." The emperor looked at Mu Tonghai again, "Didn't you discuss it with him? After the plot is finished, the adaptation rights will be given to him. Why didn't you tell him what you were going to do?"

"I have told you." Mu Tonghai coughed twice, "It's just that time is tight, so I haven't told you everything yet."

The emperor smiled and looked at Xu Shu: "You have nothing to discuss?"

Xu Shu felt that his attitude was a little strange: "You seem very proud."

The emperor's expression froze again: "You can see this?"

Xu Shu guessed: "It's great to be the emperor, don't you want to retire?"

The emperor snorted coldly, "How is that possible? Every day there are a bunch of ministers barking in your ears, eunuchs trying to persuade you about everything, and there are also concubines in the harem. Every day there are all kinds of reasons for you to go see them."

Xu Shu: "That's it. My little Mu Jin can't stand this grievance."

The emperor was suddenly speechless and stood there awkwardly.
